Cleaning Product Safety

To cut down on indoor pollution at home, keep lids on any cleaning products you use fastened tightly, says the American Lung Association. Fumes from some cleaning products may cause potential health problems for you and your family (and any pets). Chemicals from cleaning products may cause dizziness, nausea, allergic reactions, and irritation to the eye, skin and lungs.
